Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

just proposed to my girlfriend at the mill with amazing production with the help of Harm-Ydo, the miller.
Perfect spot for that unique idea. He will help with anything you need.

Our biking tour stopped here. It's the first working windmill I've ever seen. It was pretty cool. Wish we could have spent more time here.

Several friends and I saw this hulking, old wooden windmill in operation last Summer. It creaked and groaned as its arms turned, as if resisting its instructions. I had never seen such an old windmill in action, and a wooden one at that, and this one was truly a joy to see in operation. It transported all of us back at least two centuries to a time when windmills such as this one were ubiquitous across the Dutch landscape. It caused us to interrupt our walk and stare at it in amazement--an almost living piece of history. Our friends, who live nearby, told us that this particular windmill only operates sporadically and that we were lucky that it started up just as we were passing by. Also nearby is an old drawbridge which coincidentally also went into operation as we passed by. This relatively new area of Amsterdam is easy to get to by walking north from the free ferry behind Centraal Station.

Great place to have a cosy workshop. You see the inside of a real stone grinding windmill, while having your workshop.

This mill is a monument. It is a very special windmill, a chalk-trass mill. The "Krijtmolen d'Admiral" is the only one in the world that still working and powered by the wind. It is officially not working any longer but once in a month, the 2nd saturday of the month, the mill will be open for the public from 10.00 am - 03.00 pm. and free of charge. Once in a while there is a volunteer miller who let the mill working. By the time that we visited the mill, it was used for a party.

Dream come true for my gf. She always wanted to see one in real life, so we took transit from our hotel hotel2stay and it was an easy way to it. It was next to a canal and a bridge, so lots of calm space for photos. If you have spare time, its a nice visit and doesn't take too much time out of your itinerary.
